Mar 24, 2006 Bottled from Sainsbury’s. Has Funchal Maderia on the label. Very dark black in appearance with light chesnut coloured head. Wonderful roasted and slightly smokey flavours, lovely bitterness and plenty of oomph from the alcohol. I really like this version and buy it regularly from Sainsbury’s.

Feb 25, 2006 Bottle from the Guinness factory in Dublin August 2004.
Like its counterpart Guinness Original this is a carbonated stout very different ffrom the draught version.
Its alot stronger and you can taste it, it almost warms you when you drink it. Taste ofs burnt coffee with a very slight burnt chocolate flavoury sweetness.

Jan 4, 2006 A little dissappointed. A decent stout, but nothing extrodinary. It lacked the form of the draught guiness.
